Bell needs 26 runs to reach 1000 ODI runs in 2007 which would place him in 3rd position after Hayden 1265 and Ganguly 1009. He is England's leading ODI run scorer and Flintoff and Anderson are England's leading wicket takers with 33.

Bell has duly got his 1000 runs, 1010 to be exact, and is in 3rd place - Ganguly now has 1024. Bell has taken more matches to get there though.

As regards this series, Bell's 422 makes him the England all time 8th highest scorer in a one-day series. He is one of only 8 players who have made more than 400. (KP has done it twice). And only Pietersen has made more than Bell in a 7 match series, with 454.

After the World Twenty20 Anderson still retains the record for most runs conceded in an innings - 64 from 4 overs. However, he now shares that "honour" with Jayasuriya, who conceded 64 off his 4 v. Pakistan, but, unlike Anderson did not take a wicket.

Stuart Broad has the record for most runs conceded in an over, the six sixes by Yuvraj.

And to conclude England's great T20 records: England is linked with Bangladesh and Kenya in having the most consecutive defeats - 4 - in T20 games. And not just in this tournament. Previously England played 4 consecutive losing games between 2006-7, losing to SL, Pak, Aus and WI. However, the recent series is the more worrying as the sequence hasn't finished yet.

We're not really very good at this Twenty20 stuff.

Anderson has the most economical 10-6-12-1 and the most expensive figures 4-0-64-1 against the Australians by any bowler.

Which mean Andy effectively went for 64 in 23 balls rather than Jayasurias 24? Extras notwithstanding.
